Make sure you're using the Batik version that comes with FOP 0.20.5. Newer versions of Batik have a backwards-incompatible change in the API.

Re: Excel format
We currently do this in our production system using SpreadsheetML and HTML. We use SpreadsheetML for newer versions of Excel and HTML with some proprietary MS XML for Excel for Win2K or lower. The process is as follows: 1. Generate your XML data file and parse it using the parser of your choice (i.e. Xerces). 2. Use a transformer and a stylesheet you create to convert your XML into one of the aforementioned spreadsheet formats. We use Xalan for this part. The stylesheet was pretty simple to put together. FOP is not needed for this. I put the entire thing together in about two days so it isn't a big deal.

Re: Page Sequences
Andreas, Thanx for your reply. Yes I do want to ultimately make it look like it did when I just dumped the entire report body under one page sequence, however I cannot use one page sequence due to memory overflow issues. I'm still a little concerned as to why I'm having memory overflow if it is the norm to use one page sequence for the report body as I've done. As for my stylesheet, I'm not offended at all from your comments rather I'm just not as concerned on that part of it. The end result would be the same no matter what technique I used in XSLT and the performance of the stylesheet is acceptible when I use Xalan directly to produce FO. The only big question here is, Can I get away with using one page sequence or do I have to use multiple page sequences? Another equally big question is, How do I go about using multiple page sequences effectively if I have no other option? On Tuesday 06 December 2005 4:07 pm, Andreas L Delmelle wrote: Here's a brief synopsis of how things work. A group of Java classes run multiple queries to pull data from the db and into a result set. Some more Java code transforms the data into XML (sort of an intermediate form for the report). my stylesheet then takes the resultset tranformed into XML and transforms it again into FO for the FOP engine. The data can be voluminous and we are looking into streamlining the process. My major bottleneck now has been the stylesheet creating FO that appears to be choking the FO engine. In a perfect world I'd love to just dump the report in one page sequence element and have the engine sort it out but it doesn't appear to work well that way. So IIC, you need to make it look like it had all been placed under one page-sequence. (more or less: only the very last page in the document can be filled partly, but the rest needs to appear as if it were one fo:flow in one fo:page-sequence). Is that a correct assessment?

I'm still a little concerned as to why I'm having memory overflow if it is the norm to use one page sequence for the report body as I've done. The explanation for the excessive memory use, AFAIU, is that the Table object holds a list with references to its childNodes, and every childNode again has such a list, etc. As long as the Table is referenced, *all* of its descendant nodes will remain referenced, so if you have a large table with about 20 columns and 1000 rows, and the contents of the cells are plain simple blocks, then keeping this table together in one page-sequence, possibly means 2 cells in memory plus *all* nodes for their content (so, a minimum of 2 blocks and *all* their character data) Given that FOs by definition are compound objects (and not all their members are primitive types), you can try to do the math... and that is only the FO-tree side. Since the handles to the FOs are released only at the end of each page-sequence, splitting the table over multiple page-sequences is currently the only way to keep it manageable. (in both versions of FOP) (Side-note: somehow it should be possible to release the objects for the cells and their content once we're absolutely certain that they will no longer be needed. Determining that, however, doesn't seem to be as simple as it sounds, since layout may involve backtracking several rows...) As for my stylesheet, I'm not offended at all from your comments rather I'm just not as concerned on that part of it. The end result would be the same no matter what technique I used in XSLT and the performance of the stylesheet is acceptible when I use Xalan directly to produce FO. OK, my remarks were related more to style than efficiency. In your case, I'm guessing there is no noticeable performance benefit to my suggestions... It just 'rhymes' better with the XSLT way of doing things (apply templates to node-sets). The only big question here is, Can I get away with using one page sequence or do I have to use multiple page sequences? Oh, you *can* get away with using one page-sequence, but only if you have a massive heap at your disposal... Another equally big question is, How do I go about using multiple page sequences effectively if I have no other option? Well, you mentioned line-counting. How do you go about that exactly? Does this number of lines correspond to a number of elements in your source XML? In that case, you're probably best off using XSLT grouping techniques[*]. If you know in advance how many rows will fit on a page, you could even create one page-sequence per page (one table per page), which should reduce the memory consumption drastically.

Re: Q: How to define a minimal table length?
Depending on your layout requirements you can make sure that all your rows have the same height. You can use the height property for that, or even better, the block-progression-dimension property, though that's only available in FOP 0.90alpha1. If you have differing row heights you're probably a little out of luck. For one, XSL-FO doesn't allow to vertically distribute content as it's possible with text-align=justify, though there's some code in FOP 0.90 that allows to create that effect. But without having checked it I doubt it will work with tables. Tables are somewhat special and currently can't have adjustable heights. You might be able to use a trick by using the region-after as footer for the table. Without knowing more about your requirements it's a little difficult to give any more hints, but maybe the above already helps a little. Maybe someone else has additional ideas.

I am confused about the group-by XSL functionality

xsl:sort select=saxon:evaluate($sortColumn1)

select=current-grouping-key()/
xsl:call-template name=RenderByDesk
xsl:with-param name=tradeType select=$group1/
/xsl:call-template
/xsl:for-each-group
However the values in $sortColumn1 has 4 different possibilities
lets say A, B, C, D
and I need some logic that groups all As into one group and everything
else into another group ( A = group1 -- B,C,D = group2 ) .
Is there an easy way to do that?

Re: How to pass input of xml tranfs. to xslt transf. ?
Pete,
I see. No, in this case you're not missing anything although you may not
need to rewrite your whole code just to accomodate the new pattern.
Generating XML using SAX events is one way to generate XML, a good way
but not necessarily the only one. Remember that JAXP is quite flexible
and that you could use a DOMSource, for example, if you've already got
code that generates a DOM from your data. The purpose of the examples in
the examples/embedding directory are to show a gradual approach to the
patterns that we suggest people use. The benefit out of this is a
flexible and quick solution.

to generate XML and then pass it to the FOP Transformation. XML2PDF works
with a static and already existing xml file. So the whole point was how to
pass a generated xml file to fop without writing it to the file system.
Using the Obj2PDF requires a lot of refactoring in my code but that is the
only option I got I suppose, or am I missing something?
cheers,
Pete

Yes, that's basically it, though ExampleObj2PDF is a bit special.
ExampleXML2PDF is the more generic example. And yes, it works in a
webapp.

Don't use XSLTInputHandler. Use JAXP[1] instead.

Hello,
I struggling to create a webapps that creates pdf's for xml
documents.
The
problem is: I can't pipe the output of my SAX transformation to the
XSLTInputHandler.
My code uses a static xsl document and dynamic xml documents. For
demonstration purposes I create the xml file on the local filesystem
but
that'S not very good for my webapplication :o/
Here the code:
File xmlfile = new
File(session.getServletContext().getRealPath(/xml/),
nbw.xml);
OutputStream out = new java.io.FileOutputStream(xmlfile);
StreamResult streamResult = new StreamResult(out);
SAXTransformerFactory tf = (SAXTransformerFactory)
SAXTransformerFactory.newInstance();
TransformerHandler hd = tf.newTransformerHandler();
Transformer serializer = hd.getTransformer();
serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING, ISO-8859-1);
serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, yes);
hd.setResult(streamResult);
//Custom transformation with SAX
XmlTransformer xmlt = new XmlTransformer(hd);
String xslParam =
session.getServletContext().getRealPath(/xml/nbw.xsl);
String xmlParam =
session.getServletContext().getRealPath(/xml/nbw.xml);
File xmlFile = new File(xmlParam);
//XSLT Transformation
XSLTInputHandler input =
new XSLTInputHandler(xmlFile, new File((xslParam)));
renderXML(input, response);

Hello Jeremias,
good your are in the cet time zone,too ;o).
My code also uses sax so the refactoring process will not be that long.
Anyway it's always good to have a working example so I'll adapt to that.
I'll be back with details when I'm done refactoring.
cheers,
Pete

Pete,
I see. No, in this case you're not missing anything although you may not
need to rewrite your whole code just to accomodate the new pattern.
Generating XML using SAX events is one way to generate XML, a good way
but not necessarily the only one. Remember that JAXP is quite flexible
and that you could use a DOMSource, for example, if you've already got
code that generates a DOM from your data. The purpose of the examples in
the examples/embedding directory are to show a gradual approach to the
patterns that we suggest people use. The benefit out of this is a
flexible and quick solution.
